RE:  The tariff classification of Victorian/English Scented Pouch
Sachets   from Thailand  

Dear Mr. Arsenault: 

     In your letter dated June 28, 1991, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.

     Two samples of Victorian/English Scented Pouch Sachets were
submitted with your inquiry, and being returned as requested. 
Sample #1 is a pouch composed of sateen fabric, measuring 5
inches by 4 inches filled with polyester fibers scented with
fragrance beads.  The sachet is partially covered with lace and
decorated with a sateen ribbon closure.  The sachet also has a
sateen ribbon securely attached to the top which can be used for
hanging.  Sample #2 is a pouch composed of sateen fabric,
measuring 5 inches by 3 1/2 inches filled with polyester fibers
scented with fragrance beads.  The sachet is partially covered
with lace and has two sateen ribbons weaved into the top and
bottom of the lace.  The sachet also has a sateen ribbon closure.


     The applicable HTS subheading for Victorian/English Scented
Sachets will be 3307.90.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTS), which provides for other perfumery, cosmetic
or toilet preparations, not elsewhere specified or included.  The
duty rate will be 5.4 percent ad valorem.

     Articles classified in subheading 3307.90.0000, HTS, which
are products of Thailand are entitled to duty free treatment
under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) upon compliance
with all applicable regulations.
    
     This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section
177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

     A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry
documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported.  If the
documents have already been filed, this ruling should be brought
to the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction.



                                   Sincerely,
